Marlin spike hitch

Has anyone wrapped the strap and made a Marlin spike hitch with both ends at the same time? Basically the two ends are overlapped and a the hitch is made conventionally. This way you don't need to thread one end through the loop at the end of the strap or use a Dutch clip. I think the first time I made a Marlin spike I did it this way, it seemed secure, quick and a little less hardware.
